a scenic make

Hello lovelies - hope you are well - thanks for your continued support - I do appreciate it! I'm trying to get around to visit if you leave a comment but I am getting myself behind - hopefully I'll start to settle down soon into some sort of pattern. I want to share a card I made on Thursday afternoon whilst at my mums - I used crafty individual stamp, versa mark, black wow powders and pan pastels.


It was pretty simple to do but I think very effective. I'd like to enter this into the following challenge:

craftyindividualsblog -a-challenge-for-january-2015-scenic

I hope you have a good weekend.

Big hugs

Rachel xx

    It certainly is very effective Rachel and right up my street, trees, PP's and lovely strong colours what more could I ask.

    Please do not fret about getting to visit me, all in good time.

    Awesome...love that sunset background with the wonderful tree silhouette. So stunning. Please don't worry about visiting (altho I love it when you can). There's too many things going on for you right now, to add more stress with that kind of thing. Just keep on with what you must do just now, and keep your heart strong. I'm so thankful you can craft and find some relaxation therapy. Good weekend, TFS & Hugs to you & the girls too.

    Hi Rachel what a fab card, love those warm colours they go so well with the stamps. Don't worry about commenting Rachel you have enough on your plate at the moment and I certainly wouldn't expect to see any comments from you. Its more important to spend your time concentrating on yourself and the girls, we're always here and commenting is so time consuming. Take care, big hugs Susan xx

    Rachel, don't apologise for us thinking it was Pennys party. Gosh you have so much going on and if we choose to have senior moments and read things wrong, well that's our fault not yours. I still take my hat off to you, you are one brave lady. Hazel x
